David's AW News: Homecoming
Fri May 03 2024 13:39:00 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)
Greetings from Sheffield. AW HQ.
Hope you guys are all well and ready for the Big Bank Holiday weekend. They tell me it's going to be warm and sunny.
Last week I was in Spain with Toni and the team at AW-Artisan - and the heat was on in more ways than one.. if you missed it you can catch up here.
We have two main arms to the AW business in the UK. Our Aromatics production unit, and the Ancient Wisdom distribution warehouse. It's hard to be in two places at the same time, as much as I would like to be.
I visited the Ancient Wisdom warehouse, and said hello to everyone on Monday.. checked out the revamped Showroom there.. and totally blown away by what the guys there have achieved. Maybe I'm biased but that showroom is awesome, it's as though all the hard work and creativity of everyone at AW is distilled and on show in that one spot. I was quite overcome with a mixture of pride and excitement. And the customers visiting recently certainly seem to be impressed. Getting really good reviews lately.
On Sunday in Malaga I dropped my hire car off at the stress free (no dodgy tricks) place I use these days. Here's a tip..Malagacar.com - I highly recommend them if you need car hire in the area. It's not inside the airport but a short mini bus to the terminal from a big shed place near, and friendly helpful people. I took a Ryanair flight to Manchester along with the hungover stag and hen party groups returning home. Manchester Airport wasn't too stressed, although 7c was a little shocking for me after 3 months in tropical climbs. But I enjoyed a pleasant homecoming drive over the Snake Pass to Sheffield.
Home at last.
I have spent most of this week at AW-Aromatics with the team reviewing the new products in process.. As always there is awesome stuff on the way.. top secret at this stage but very exciting.. Our designers Sandra and Emily are totally on it - creativity and ideas spilling forth like a magic fountain. The Hop Hare Brand, conceived and developed by Sandra.. is coming along nicely. We just added to the range bags, tote bags and pouches.
Other items from India also came in and also back into stock.. Indian products are having a massive resurgence these days.. I believe at AW we have the best range and prices.. especially incense.
Happening Soon..
Father's Day is approaching fast.. We have a good selection to inspire you here.
We also have a big stock of Buddha items arriving.. it's Buddha Day coming up soon.. so might want to consider this.
Apparently it's International Bath Bomb Day soon..
This weekend we have some vouchers to help you stock up for all this and the Spring / Summer / Wedding season.. DON'T MISS OUT!!
Anyway I know you are busy or getting ready for the long weekend. Late May Day Greetings.. Enjoy!!
Hopefully we will have nice weather..
Take care.. more updates next Friday.
David
